Adjacent works:
Network rail may instruct the alliance to undertake track works in an adjacent Area where it is value for money and otherwise practical to do so. Network rail will take into account the various alliances’ capacity, resources and geographic accessibility. Likewise an Alliance in an adjacent Area may be instructed to undertake adjacent works (in the alliance’s area) on a similar basis.
Additional works:
Where network rail considers appropriate, an alliance (or participant within an alliance) may be invited to enter into a new contract with network rail to undertake track works in the area or in an adjacent Area. Such a new contract with network rail may be solely with that participant (or all participants), or may include other designers and/or contractors. An Additional works contract may be based on any of network rail’s standard terms and conditions amended accordingly, including NR21 requiring that participant (or all participants) to enter into another alliance agreement with network rail (or join an existing alliance).
